Miyakojima-Part 3, Eco Points

Good morning.
First, please see many "Smiling Glenn" photos below from Miyakojima.
I really love Okinawa. It is a special place for me. And just looking at the photos always brings back the good memories and feelings I have about Okinawa!
Please feel the positive energy!!!

From today, the Eco(ecological) Point system changed. Until November 30th, you could get full points for anything bought which was applicable to the Eco Points system. Such products include a tv, refrigerator, air conditioner, and maybe a few more, but I don't know.

I decided to take advantage of the system and bought a tv in early November. After I bought it, I told a few people(Actually I told A LOT of people) about it. Then, to my knowledge, many people I know bought a tv too. Ms. J bought a 40 inch Toshiba, and so did my buddy Mike from America. They both got great deals and paid only about 75,000yen. Mr. T bought a 52 incher Sharp, a very high grade tv, and paid over 400,000yen. But to my surprise, all of them will have to wait at least a month to get their tvs delivered because the tvs are out of stock. That sucks. I got my tv delivered in two days...
Anyway, from today, you can still get Eco points, but only half of the total value. Half is better than nothing!!
